NEW DELHI: AAP on Monday released a campaign song, titled Dilli Da Putt Kejriwal (Delhi’s son, Kejriwal), urging residents to re-elect Arvind Kejriwal in the upcoming assembly polls.
The Punjabi song, released on Lohri, features the line, “Is Vaari Sun Lo, Phir Kejriwal Nu Chunn Lo”, calling upon the electorate to elect the former CM again to ensure the continuation of public welfare schemes and the fulfilment of his promises.
Lohri, a festival marking gratitude for the harvest, is widely celebrated in Punjab and Delhi.
AAP, in a statement, said that the track released on X went viral within hours of release and was widely shared by supporters on social media. “It highlights Kejriwal’s achievements in Delhi and emphasises his vision for the city’s development, reflecting the aspirations of progress under his leadership,” the party said in a statement. “It underscores key initiatives of Kejriwal govt, such as free electricity, water and the pilgrimage programmes for senior citizens,” it added.
AAP said the song also outlines new guarantees in its manifesto for the assembly polls, including the Mahila Samman Yojana, which promises Rs 2,100 per month to every woman directly in their bank accounts, and the Sanjeevani Yojana, which aims to cover all medical expenses for senior citizens above the age of 60.
Voting for the 70 assembly constituencies in the capital will be held on Feb 5, and the results will be declared on Feb 8.
